Nomadic indie cinephiles put down roots later this summer
After eight years of nomadic Austin screenings, Hyperreal Film Club is at work on a clubhouse of their own. The home base, located at 301 Chicon, is expected to open around September.
Bolstered by a 2019-launched reviews website and sizable Discord and Instagram followings, the trio pushes their limits with the brick-and-mortar, planting a flag for their ever-growing community to assemble., we always wanted to lean into providing space for people to hang out before and after the screening,” Kaye says. “We’ve had so many folks say that they’ve met friends or filmmaking partners through Hyperreal, and we just want to keep fostering that club mentality.
Even as it levels up, the club maintains a scrappy, crowdfunded ethos. Before wrapping their Hotel Vegas residency in June , the cinephiles will host a May 30 going-away party at the venue that also launches a Kickstarter campaign for building costs. Kaye promises a hoedown theme for the event – “really country and slutty” – and teases, “I’m really working on a mechanical bull, but no promises. They’re way more expensive than you would think.
